A friend recommended the ube mochi with mango sticky rice, and since we were in the area, I had to stop by. Plaza felt a little questionable, but once you step inside, the place was cute sending chill vibes. There is some seating if you want to enjoy your drinks and treats. I am a HUGE fan of both mochi and mango sticky rice, so this combo hit the spot! The ube mochi is incredibly delicate, wrapping around the fresh mango and sticky rice. Not overly sweet, which I appreciate and the flavors work really well together. Even better when you top it with the coconut cream. Got 2 for $25 and each one was the size of the mango. Mochi with mango and sticky rice was a definite 5/5! Try it for yourself- so so good! Come early so they don't sell out. read more

A cute shop! Very little parking, and it is tight, there is a neighborhood next door with street parking if needed. Inside has many menus and things to look at, has some cute decor as well. Service was great. Everyone was kind and quick. I preordered the mango sticky rice ube mochi on IG and it was just okay! I saw on IG that these were the last mangoes for their season so I'm assuming thats why it was on the smaller side, but for me personally it wasn't good enough to come back for. read more

So delicious! Ordered the famous mango sticky rice Ube mochi with coconut cream, Ube cheesecake, and a banana pudding matcha latte for this visit. I've also had their corn latte in the past. Food and drink so delicious. The mango sticky rice Ube mochi was so good especially when you drizzle the coconut cream on it. The mango was so fresh. The coconut cream tasted like they put a little something else in it. I seriously want to put that coconut cream on a lot of my desserts. In fact, I had some left over so I drizzled that on my Ube cheesecake! The Ube cheesecake had a rich, Ube flavor. The drinks are to die for. I especially loved the banana pudding matcha latte as it was creamy, and had a wonderful banana flavor with banana chunks, and maybe crushed cookies on top. I need to go back to try their other stuff!! read more

Wow life changing stuff ! I only got the VIRAL UBE MOCHI with mango sticky rice inside but OH MY GOODNESS it's so good !! Highly recommend. It's the perfect combo for me because I could eat mochi mango sticky rice everyday if I had my way. Not overly sweet! The sauce adds to the flavor but I already fell in love with it upon first bite as is. Excited to try more items in future ! Fast service, chill spot.

Saw this ube sticky rice mango mochi on instagram and had to get it. The mochi was delicious and the mango was sweet. The coconut cream paired well with the sticky rice mango mochi. The whole thing wasn't too sweet either which is what I liked. Four stars because I don't think it's worth $15 for such a small amount of mochi, mango and rice, and also because the mochi took a while to come out even though they had plenty available on the rack premade. Service was okay, nothing extraordinary. There is some seating inside the store, nice spot to hangout and catch up with friends! The mochi is definitely worth a try! read more

Came here after brunch because I needed something cold and refreshing. This spot has tons of drinks to choose from, so it's hard not to find something you'll like. I grabbed the Crème Brûlée drink and a Vietnamese coffee. The Crème Brûlée was good smooth, sweet, and really hit the spot. The Vietnamese coffee was good too, but not as strong as I expected...tasted more like a powdered mix, kinda like Korean instant coffee. Still, overall this place is solid. Good vibes, good options, and perfect for a quick drink run read more

After long fun day at the pool I went to BL tea, I was excited after seeing it recommended on Tiktok. While I was bummed that the ube mochi was sold out, I wasn't left disappointed. The matcha coconut cold foam was super hydrating and delicious after being outside all day with the matchmisu being sweet but not cloying. The sofa was a comfortable place and despite how busy it was, it was kept running smoothly. I want to come back to try other things on the menu. read more

I stopped by this tea place to get my wife a drink since I was already in the plaza this store is in for a Yelp event next door. I found parking just fine but parking can be hard to find depending on when you come. When I walked inside, all the workers greeted me. I look at their menu and called my wife. She said the passionade and fruit tea looked good but I should ask which one they recommend. The lady working the cashier recommend the passionade so I got a large one and asked for light ice. The place isn't that big inside. They made my order quick and I went to the other side to pick it up. I took it home and my wife loved her drink. It wasn't too sweet or plain and they put light ice like I asked. read more

I love BLTea's current Valentine's menu. I've returned for the U-Be My Boo Matcha multiple times now. The flavor combination of the fresh ube mixture at the bottom of the cup along with the ube cream on top + the matcha is SOOOO FREAKIN BOMB. All that plus the cute strawberry Pocky stick with the freeze dried strawberries on top is j perfect together. The various textures and the amount of sweetness in this drink are 10/10. You gotta try the U-Be My Boo Matcha before it's dissappears March 2. You've been warned ~~~ I will always support BLTea because they provide decent service, freshly made seasonal flavors, stamp cards for returning customers, and overall it's honestly the cutest spot for boba in the SFV.

Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Pretty decent boba shop near my house. I got boba milk tea and it was classic, I saw a lot of customers in line and also people hanging out inside.

Their mango sticky rice was so goood! It is $14 though, but I supposed that's inflation for you. Both drinks were pretty tasty! I'll definitely come back to try their other drinks. They have few tables inside to sit in, if you want to hang out for a bit. The chocolate espresso is pretty strong, if you want caffeine, you'll definitely enjoy it. They're service is pretty quick, too! read more

I've been twice to this spot in the valley. The spot is in a small parking plaza with ample parking. Overall, BLTea is more of a social spot versus a working spot, but we were able to chill there for a few hours on our laptops. The first visit, I tried their mango coconut drink (actually not sure if they still have it) and an Oreo cookie (not pictured). Both items were solid! During this second visit I tried the banana cream matcha with oat milk and the cream cheese Oreo milk tea. Drinks are solid, and I'm particularly impressed with the matcha. Matcha lovers know boba-centered spots don't particularly have the best matcha, as their focus is on overall drinks. But the matcha here is earthy, not bitter, and meshes well with the fun toppings. Don't expect the best matcha of your life or expect a matcha like those in Koreatown, but it's solid. This second visit, I believe we snagged the only outlet behind the plants and non-working self-service kiosk, so keep that in mind. Service is good but it can get busy and I saw some other folks waiting a while. They also have a stamp card! Overall, great spot in the valley and will definitely be back! read more

This was, without question, one of the worst customer service experiences I've had. The cashier asked me to repeat my order four different times, moved incredibly slowly, and spoke so quietly that it was nearly impossible to hear her, even though I was speaking loudly and clearly. After ordering, I waited over 20 minutes for my drink and mochi. There was no announcement or indication that my order was ready. It turns out it had been sitting in a corner that isn't even visible from the customer waiting area. If I hadn't gone looking, I probably would have waited even longer. To make matters worse, the mochi was unbelievably small, especially considering it cost nearly $14. The portion was nowhere close to what the price would lead you to expect. Overall, the service throughout my visit was extremely poor, and the experience left a very negative impression. Between the slow service, poor communication, excessive wait time, and overpriced food, I won't be returning. There are far better boba shops that value their customers' time. read more

Been coming to BLTea for awhile now as they have a huge selection of boba, fruit, and other unusual drinks, plus different decadent desserts. However at this visit, I was "influenced" by one of my fave Instagram foodies, @ComfyWithKerry, who drove all the way from West LA to Van Nuys to try these viral items: the Mango Mochi Sticky Rice and the Hawaiian Garlic Cheese Bread! Omgosh as always, she was so right to give them 2 thumbs up because both were sooo GOOD!! You guys have to try the Mochi Mango Ube-Pandan Sticky Rice especially since mango season is in full swing, and they are so sweet and juicy!! The mochi is fresh and gooey so be prepared to have a powdery, sticky mess on everything! The garlic cheese bread is crazy delicious, and you have to control yourself from eating the entire box! Run to BLTea - you will not regret it!! read more

The viral mango sticky rice mochi is, as others have stated, very small and gimmicky. It tasted alright, but not worth $14 and the sticky rice tasted a bit stale. The service wasn't great, and the girl had a bit of an attitude. I also tried the mango matcha dream which was decent, definitely on the heavier side though read more

4.5 stars Drinks are easily 5-star worthy--super delicious, vibrant, and smooth. I'd definitely return when I'm in the area. Great variety, and they offer vegan/non-dairy milk, which is a plus. Be prepared to wait if it's busy. The place gets packed, and with limited seating, the stand-and-wait time can be long, which is where the .5 star deduction comes in. Staff was busy but still friendly, with minimal interaction. read more

Cute place, nice staff but I would go elsewhere for specialty coffee; it was very sweet w/o the coffee flavor. Great flavor on the banana latte but it's more of a dessert rather than a coffee & the Vietnamese coffee didn't have that bold coffee taste that it should; didn't even finish my drink because of how underwhelming it was.. Maybe their boba drinks are good but I would not come here for coffee. read more

It can get busy so sometimes drinks take a little longer to come out, but the quality is still there! I really love the seasonal drinks they offer, like the carrot cake latte. There is some room to sit and study or catch up with friends, and it's very nicely decorated. Will definitely keep coming back to try all the different drinks! read more

EXCUSE YOUR FINEST PARDON?! The mango/pandan sticky rice mochi blew my mind. I literally came here bc I saw the product on my tic tok feed when I was, of course looking up ube places near me (I need my fix of ube every now and then) I ordered the Mango coco seasonal drink too and that was great! Not too sweet. It's located in a plaza right next to the gas station and I found parking right in front. The atmosphere is cute and cozy w plants. Service is friendly. They offered to cut my mochi. read more

I found BLTea accidentally, I guess you can say. I was on my way to get coffee but the spot I was going to was closed. Undeterred, I went on Yelp to search for a nearby coffee place and one of the results was BLTea. So I quickly looked through their Yelp page to see what they had before driving over. When I got there the girl at the counter was incredibly friendly. She helped me decide on my Pistachio coffee with Espresso with the matcha cake. She also helped me decide that the next time I visit and there will be a next time I am going with a matcha drink and ube cheese Wait, I have gotten ahead of myself. My coffee had a great flavor and my dessert was incredibly moist; delicious! I am looking forward to going back!! read more

If you're looking for a new drink spot in the San Fernando Valley, BLTea is absolutely worth a try. Their menu is incredibly diverse and often shifts with the seasons. Unless you're ordering one of their staple beverages, don't get too attached to your drink of choice, as it may be gone sooner than you think! The Mango Sticky Rice is my personal favorite, but it's only around for the spring and summer. Get it while you can! Many boba shops in the San Fernando Valley adopt a function-over-form mindset, and aren't any fun to sit in. Even though BLTea is located in a smaller unit compared to its neighbors, they've really nailed the aesthetics and maximized their seating for their customers. It's a comfortable spot to relax in. My only point of contention is their service. I have found that interacting with some of their staff has been... difficult. When I am the sole member of my party, a few of their all-female front-of-house are quite curt and unwelcoming. However, when I'm with my female friends, they get treated with absolute kindness and professionalism (even during the same order). I really enjoy coming to BLTea for their drinks, but I often leave with a sour taste in my mouth because of this seemingly discriminate behavior. This is simply a personal experience I thought worth sharing for my fellow men, and does not apply to all of their staff. Truly a tough three star to give, as it has absolutely nothing to do with their excellent product. Regardless, BLTea is a solid choice for your next specialty drink fix, and I hope your service experience is better than mine! Picture courtesy of corner.inc online gallery. read more

Tried more things: - the snowy peaches: made with actual peaches and blended together. Not very sweet, and perhaps I should have gotten it during peach season. It has caffeine from the jasmine tea - pumpkin earl grey: a nice blend and you certainly get both flavors - earl grey salted egg cookie: I liked the egg better as part of the milky moon. You can't combine rewards cards, so don't forget to bring them. Also, the strawberry milk has jam, not fresh strawberries, just to know. read more

I am so disappointed in this place and the issues started as soon as I walked up to the cashier. I was second in line and there was no greeting from the Hispanic girl taking orders. She had a serious attitude with all three of us in line and I definitely noticed. I really don't know how a place like this hired her. She mumbled things after I placed my order and just stood there leaning to one side without even caring about providing even decent customer service. At lest the other girl working (Asian girl making drinks) was kind enough to say "have a nice day" with a smile as I got my order It took 15 minutes for my drink since it seemed like NOTHING was prepped. The two girls kept throwing and banging things while running back and forth from the main prep area to the two back rooms. Now for the let down on my order. I asked for the Banana Pudding matcha Latte with light ice. The ice request was followed which I appreciate. But the matcha was not mixed well and tasted super watery. As for the "banana pudding" aspect, it doesn't make much sense. There's hardly any banana flavor except for a small dime size piece of banana mixed in. The rest was just whipped cream with crushed nilla wafer cookies. And the lid isn't really ideal because the opening is so wide that you can't drink it like a normal lid. I wasn't given a straw but there was a spoon in my drink (which I thought was a straw until I got to my car) and I just have to wonder who is scooping out whipped cream to eat from this drink? You go anywhere else with some sort of cream/foam top and you're supposed to let the topping mix with the drink as you take sips. Eating whipped cream doesn't really make sense. As for the ube basque cheesecake, it was definitely over baked and had a decent cheesecake flavor but hardly ube flavor. The color is gorgeous but it's not worth it. $16 for this pairing just thrown out. read more

Always looking for another boba spot to try - BLTea is one of the cutest yet. Easy menu, cute ambiance, plenty of seating, easy parking, and tons of dessert options!

I was on the hunt for a quick bite and coffee. I came across this little gem. I originally wanted something savory but upon entering I noticed they had a Dubai mochi cookie. I ordered that and a Vietnamese coffee. They were both delicious and I returned 4 times within 2 weeks to grab the Dubai mochi cookie. The service was fast and friendly. They offered to cut the mochi cookie for me. It was clean and quite cute inside. I can't wait to go back to try other drinks. I'm sad that they will no longer offer the Dubai mochi delight! read more

BLTea is a great spot! We've been here before and always have a good experience. I highly recommend their matcha, especially the coconut matcha cold foam, which is my usual go-to. Today, we tried the iced sesame fresh milk and the iced tiramisu coffee latte. The drinks came out super fast, which we appreciated. The black sesame flavor was strong and nutty, but the drink itself wasn't overly sweet or heavy, exactly how I prefer it! It will definitely be my new go-to order. The tiramisu latte was on the sweeter side, but the coffee flavor still came through and tasted great. They even add a piece of tiramisu on top, which was cool! For the large size, the prices are reasonable. Parking is easy since there's a lot, although it can fill up pretty quickly during busy times. read more

This place was recommended to me by a family Member so I had to try it. I got here right at Opening so it was not busy at all and was one of the first of the day. They open at 12pm. I was welcomed in by the very friendly staff. I ordered the Banana Pudding Matcha (large) and had a seat in their lovely seating area. Looking at their menu they have a variety of drinks to choose from. They had good music playing. Once my order was ready I was called to the desk TO PICK UP. my matcha looked so good and let me tell you "IT WAS!" I will be coming back to try a few more drinks for sure. read more

Honestly, the place inside is very nice, and the drinks are aesthetically pleasing, but it is overhyped. I got a s'mores latte and it was just very chocolatey. The Matcha drink on the right was also very milky so it made me more skeptical about this place. The service was good though, which made me really a little higher than which I would've done. read more

Stopped by Bltea after a friend recommended it, and I'm glad I did. This place has a wide range of selections and plenty of options to try. I ordered the banana pudding latte and really enjoyed it! it had a nice balance of espresso, with the banana pudding adding just the right amount of sweetness. I would definitely return, especially since it's a local spot and my first experience was a great one. The only downside is that the parking isn't the best, as it's shared with several other businesses. read more

I was really looking forward to a solid boba fix, but this was a massive disappointment. The boba itself was completely stale and hard on the inside, which usually means it's been sitting out for way too long. Worse than the texture was the flavor. The pearls had a bitter taste to them, almost like they weren't rinsed properly or were contaminated by whatever cleaning agent was used on the equipment. I couldn't take more than two sips before throwing the whole thing in the trash. Total waste of money. Definitely won't be coming back here. read more

Stopped by here for my tea fix of the day. I had their earl gray milk tea with sea salt cream. Milk tea was good with strong tea flavor. I just wished their sea salt cream was thick and creamy like other boba places. Their sea salt cheese foam did not taste good because it was lacking cheese flavor and i think it was rather a whipped cream topping instead of a whipped cheese topping. It was disappointing to add and pay extra fee for sea salt cheese to my milk tea. They also offer sweet desserts as well. Friendly staff and this place is clean and modern with decors inside. But fell flat on sea salt cheese foam. read more

I was really looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately, the experience was a letdown from start to finish. The customer service here is incredibly lacking. The employees were visibly rude, unhelpful, and acted like taking my order was a massive inconvenience. There was no greeting, no politeness, just bad attitudes all around. It really ruins the vibe of a place when the staff makes you feel completely unwelcome. To make matters worse, the drinks didn't make up for the terrible service. The boba was completely undercooked and hard in the center. Instead of being chewy and fresh, they were tough and practically unswallowable. Between the dismissive staff and the poor quality of the drinks, I won't be coming back. Save your time and money and go somewhere else where they actually appreciate their customers and know how to cook their boba. read more

Finally got around to trying this local spot, it's been on my radar for a while. I ordered a banana pudding iced coffee and it was DELICIOUS. Not too sweet, just perfect.

Ambiance was fine- they have seating available inside and it was full when I went in. read more
